    convertible top boot material

    You can get a canvas as well and it will look better IMO. My top needs to be replaced but I really try to drive with the top up but it lives in a garage. There are not that expensive but I'm not sure you would want to replace it yourself.

    Engine About To Break Transmission Coolings Lines Unless Someone Stops Me.

    Well Thanks for the replies again. Between hitting it with that blaster stuff and a flare wrench they actually came off ok. I was really surprised. The rest of the install went by quickly. I guess if I ever get around to covert to a 5 speed i can ignore these in the future.

    "I think we need a bigger boat", or trunk.

    This is a self contained unit so can't adjust it. I was thinking of flipping the spare tire over and setting it in that. JL Audio - Car Audio Systems
